* [[Faux Symbolism]]: When the game begins and Conker gets drunk, he exits the bar and walks to the right (where his adventure will begin); in the stinger when he drinks away his depression and gets drunk once again, he exits the bar and walks to the ''left''.

* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: The Nintendo 64 was often criticized as a "kiddy console" with ''[[Conker's Bad Fur Day|Bad Fur Day]]'' being the exception that proved the rule. So when a remake was planned for the Xbox dubbed ''[[What Could Have Been|Conker: Live and Uncut]]'', people expected to see Conker's foul mouthed antics in all their uncensored glory. Cue [[Executive Meddling]] and the game being ominously re-titled ''Conker: Live & Reloaded''. The final product was an even more censored version of the [[Nintendo 64|N64]] original. Some fans certainly enjoyed the irony.

* [[Idiot Plot]]: The whole Panther King storyline. It took a ''scientist'' to figure out that there was a leg missing from the king's table, and even then, the only replacement for the missing leg the Professor considered theoretically viable was a '''squirrel'''. This is also an [[Excuse Plot]], as it is only there to give the Panther King a reason to want to confront Conker when he would not have one otherwise. (Though according to some tropers, it may have been implied that Ze Professor merely lies about it and tricks the Panther King to distract him from what was going to happen to him later on.)

* [[They Changed It, Now It Sucks]]/[[It's the Same, Now It Sucks]]: This is arguably a rare case of both being valid complaints with the remake. In the changes department, a large amount of fans were unhappy about ''Live and Reloaded'' being heavily censored despite being Mature rated, cutting out content, and replacing its much loved multiplayer with a new one. As for what it kept intact, the main story had no new content added beyond its updated visuals.
